The

Importance

of

the

Right

Approach

Treasure

hunting

can

be

a

profitable

and rewarding

hobby,

if

approached in a patient and

diligent

manner.

Time

spent researching

to

locate a

worthwhile

site

for

a search can

be

time

wasted

if

your

search

is

hasty and erratic.

To

achieve

maximum

results

it

is

important

then.

to

decide

on

your

approach

to

any particular site in advance

of

the actual search.

Tactics

will

be decided

by

the

type

of

site -

it

is

more

profitable

to

scan

a small area

thoroughly.

than

to

conduct a haphazard search

of

the

total

site. However, when the site

is

too

far away

for

YO\J

to

make several

return

visits a plan should be adopted

which

gives

maximum

site coverage,

at

the

same

time

as

indicating

the

most

likely

areas

for

Your

detector alone

is

not

a guarantee

of

successful treasure hunting.

Any

detector

needs

an

operator

and

for

the

best results the operator needs

the

approach,

attitude

and technique.

Too

many .

beginners neglect

the

importance

of

pre-planning and research before using

their

detector

in

the

field.

and patience and technique during the actual search.

A successful search should begin

with

research sometime before

the

day

of

the

actual search. The

extent

and thoroughness

of

your

research

will

be one

of

the

major

factors in

the

success

of

your

detecting.

You

should aim

to

get

as

complete

an

understanding

as

possible

of

the

local

history

and

geography.

The key

to

the

choice

of

the

site

is

to

think

of

people. where

they

congregated over

the

past few

hundred years. What were

their

customs and pursuits? Where

did

they

spend money? Where

did

they carry money?

The

answers are

like

public

footpaths and

ancient rights

of

way.

old

houses and

so

on.

When

you

have chosen

your

site, allocate a

whole

day

from

early morning

to

early evening

for

the

search. Make sure

that

you

have all equipment

you

are

likely

to

need.

Your

detector

should

be

checked before starting

out,

and

you

should always carry a spare set

of

batteries.

You

will

also need

a strong, sharp

trowel.

It

is

also a good idea

to

have a set

of

lines and pins

so

that

you

can

layout

your

search area scientifically. Most beginners make

the

mistake

of

rushing

about

hoping

to

chance

upon a rare

find.

If

for

example there happened

to

be a valuable ring

that

was buriad

4"

deep

on

the

site you were searching,

if

you

rushed about haphazardly and

quickly

on

the

site,

the

odds

would

be

very much against

your

finding

it.

On the

other

hand,

if

you

pegged

out

the

area

scientifically

and

searched

slowly

and

thoroughly,

the

~ds

of

finding

the

ring

would

be much

more

in

your

favour.

Remember, BE

PATIENT

and WOR K

SLOWLY.

Do

not

try

to

cover

too

large

an

area. Restrict

yourself

to

a small area and

work

through

it

thoroughly.

Make a note

of

the

position

and

extent

of

the

area, and then when

you

return

you

can start again

further

on

without

missing any ground

or

covering

the

same area twice.

It

is

also

important

to

keep the

detector

head

as

close

to

the

ground

as

possible.

Ideally.

you

should

"iron"

the ground

with

the

search

head

of

the

detector,

so

that

you

do

not

lose

any

detection

range.

Similarly.

if

you

work

slowly

and carefully

you

should be able

to

distinguish

the

faint

signals

as

well

as

the

clear·an

signals and

further

increase

your

finds.

The technique

of

getting

the

best

out

of

your

detector

is

not

learnt overnight.

You

need

to

get

as

much experience

as

possible

so

that

you can recognise every

kind

of

signal. Indeed. a good

detector

operator

can

often

tell

you

what

is

being detected before

it

is

unearthed.
